Each match will be broadcast live via a live stream with expert commentary from poker personalities and coaches from all over the world.

All PokerStrategy.com members can view these matches (without hole cards) for free. Of course, we'll let you know well in advance the exact times of the matches so you can be free to sit and watch the action via our site!

Who is competing in the event?

Eight PokerStrategy.com coaches will be battling it out to claim the inaugural PokerStrategy.com Heads-Up Championship. Over the course of the coming week, we will be announcing which coaches will be partaking in this event.

Over the course of the next several weeks, each coach will produce a video documenting their perspective of the matches they played – two videos per heads-up match with detailed dynamics and hand analysis from the experts. These will be scheduled and announced at a later date.

We’d also like your feedback – what would you like to see from our coaches when they produce these videos?

Rules and regulations

Each match must be at stakes of at least $1/$2 No-Limit, with the match taking place across no less than three heads-up tables.

Coaches can increase the stakes or number of tables played at their own discretion, so long as all tables are the same stake.

Each match lasts for exactly 90 minutes, with the winner being the player in profit after this time. If one coach has to leave before the 90 minutes have been played, they forfeit the match.
